Chapter 496
Xiang Xue Ting fainted, and Yang Fan stood still, not daring to make any rash moves.
After repeated confirmation, he realized that this was not an Illusion Realm, nor had he suddenly fallen into madness.
This was indeed a Mysterious world occurring right before his eyes.
This scene abruptly reminded him of "Taoyuan Record"; the setting was almost ninety-nine percent similar.
The only dissimilarity was probably that the expressions of the people walking around here were numb, their demeanor dull, and they seemed filled with malice.
Yang Fan observed for a while and then abandoned the idea of delving deeper to see what was really happening.
This place was better left unexplored due to excessive curiosity.
He lifted Xiang Xue Ting and turned back towards the alley, the staircase was supposed to be right behind him, but now it was blocked by a wall. Yang Fan could only try his luck to see if walking deeper might reveal a way out.
The alley was not long, with two households on each side, all ancient quadrangle courtyards, with black wooden doors and mottled couplets next to them. They looked quite old, the paper torn and yellowed as if they had grown into the wood.
Walking to the end, Yang Fan was again blocked by another wall.
Yang Fan set Xiang Xue Ting aside, moved some miscellaneous items nearby, and stepped on them to look over the wall.
